Minecraft hits 5.2 million sales, still a secret yet to find, says Notch

Markus ‘Notch’ Persson has confirmed that Minecraft has now sold 5.2 million units since it first went into a public alpha state in 2009.

But speaking at a GDC interview session, conducted by SpyParty developer Chris Hecker, the Mojang co-founder spilled that there’s still one secret left in the game that has eluded even hardcore players.

He also explained why there was no female character model in the game.
